Clay Critters

I gave the children the option of using twine in place of clay for their tails

My kinder through 6th graders created some very cute mice using air dry clay. I said we were channeling Beatrix Potter meets Ratatouille. But my mind tends to dwell in books and movies. They could create a family of critters and set up a little scene on top of their scrapbook paper covered "stage". These were painted with acrylic paints.

About Mary

Thanks for stopping by MaryMaking! I'm a SCAD grad with a B.F.A. in Graphic Design. I've worked in advertising and as a fine artist. I decided to combine two of my biggest loves, art and kids, and began teaching private art classes. I Love helping children create beautiful artwork! This blog has been a great way to exchange ideas with other art educators and share student art.
